    Description

      A default constructed QSettings instance uses the path .config/Unnkown Organization on linux. It is common to use .config/<APPNAME>.conf or .config/<APPNAME>/<APPNAME>.conf. <APPNAME> being the application name, not some composite string.

      The latter can be achieved by setting the app and orgname to <APPNAME>, however Config- and CacheLocation will then be e.g. .cache/<org>/<app>/, wich in turn is unusual for linux.

      This can simply be solved by not inserting "Unknown Organization" in the config path.
